Explain why mess extinctions occur and why it make sense to measure geologic time between mass extinctions

Mass extinction occur from natural disasters, such as a n asteroid hitting earth or a volcano errupting and spread ash everywhere.

It makes sense to measure geologic time between mass extinctions because after each mass extinction, there is almost no life left and the few left have to repopulate, which may lead way to new mutations and new varieties of plants and animals.

In some countries liquid nitrogen is used on dairy trucks instead of mechanical refrigerators. A 3 hour delivery trip requires .
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Amount of necessary heat transfer, q = 66.1\times 10^{6} J  

Given:

Volume of liquid Nitrogen, V = 0.200 m^{3}

Density of liquid Nitrogen,  \rho = 808 kg/m^{3}

Temperature, T = - 195.8^{\circ}C

Temperature Rise, T' =  4.0^{\circ}C

Latent heat of Vaporization, L_{v} = 201 kJ/kg

Specific heat capacity of gas, C_{gas} = 1040 J/kg^{\circ}C

Solution:

Now, calculation of heat transfer required to evaporate liquid nitrogen and raise its temperature is given by:

q = mC_{gas}\Delta T + mL_{v}                        (1)

Now, mass, m can be given by:

m = \rho V = 808\times 0.200 = 161.6 kg

Now, from eqn (1):

q = m(C_{gas}\Delta T + L_{v})  

q = 161.6(1040(T' - T) + 201\times 10^{3})  

q = 161.6(1040(4 - (- 195.8)) + 201\times 10^{3})  

q = 66.1\times 10^{6} J
